Genealogy question
I've done a lot of my family tree on Ancestry and I have Kissinger from Germany in my paternal line going back to my 10th great grandfather born in 1580 in Selzen, Germany. Just out of curiosity, I am wondering how to find out if there is a connection to the infamous Kissinger family. Any suggestions? Was Kissinger a common German name? Thanks!

Re: Genealogy question
Well, one way to find out would be to actually research the person named "X" Kissinger and see if his family tree intersects your family tree.

You could also research different folks named "Kissinger" and look at their family trees.

Another way to do that would be to find out X Kissinger's father's and mother's names (Try Wikipedia for that) and then look up their obits and see who their parents were.

You can also find out X Kissinger's mother's and father's name and look and see if you see them on Find-A-Grave.

So if you want to see where your family tree and another person's family tree's match up you will have to do a little work on that family.

Good luck.

It is very, very rewarding work.

Or you can contact your local Mormon church and ask them for help.

Every single Mormon church has a person who specializes in Family History.

They have more resources than anyone.

Seriously.
